Totally worth the money
By Trailman
I have had my Somelier glasses for well over 10 years now, actually brought them with me from Austria when I moved in 97, and I agree that they make a difference. I cannot truly enjoy wine from a cheap glass anymore. Even the less expensive Vinum series by Riedel, which is machine blown, does not get close to the experience of the Somelier glass.They are very delicate and fragile, which is the only caveat that I have. Drying one off with a kitchen towel has do be done very carefully - always hold it by the glass bowl, never by the stem. They break easily, and replacing one does cut a hole in the average household budget.

Expensive, but worth it. A total enhancement to the wine drinking experience. TIP: Get a proper cleaning cloth and be careful when handling. These things will crumble before your very eyes.
